Help Stephanie raise money

For participating in 2023 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon

My Story…

Hey and welcome to my fundraising page! 

My name is Stephanie Ricci and I am taking part in the Toronto Waterfront Marathon to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society in honour of Sonia Perrone, Charlene Keltz, and Micheal Palermo. 


Sonia Perrone is Agostino and Nicolina’s mom. Sonia was very family oriented and would do anything to see her children happy.  She was welcoming and loving to everyone that she had met. Sonia always had everyone’s best interest at heart.  Sonia lost her fight 8 years ago.


Charlene Keltz was my zia who had the biggest heart and purest sole. She was truly an Angel send from above who blessed not only myself but my family. Charlene’s smile light up the room like no one else’s. From espresso talks to nail polish colour debates to our afternoon couch naps… the list goes on. Charlene had to lost her fight to cancer 3 years ago. 


Micheal Palermo was my zio…. I can write endless stories about him but none of that will do him justice. Zio you were always the best to have around and ah man those Jell-O shots really were the best anyone has ever made. Even the last couple months of your life, no matter how sick you felt, you truly never showed any pain and always made everyone around you feel so loved. My zio lost his fight in 2008. 


In honour of Sonia, Charlene, and Micheal I will be running in their honour/ memory. 


I want to thank everyone who is supporting me while I run in their honour.
